What is MP3?
MP3 is an abbreviation of Motion Picture Experts Group (or
MPEG) Audio Layer 3. MP3 is simply a file format with a
data compression ratio of 1:10 (128 Kbps*).
That means,by using MP3 format, one CD-R or CD-RW can
contain 10 times as much data volume as a regular CD can.
*Bit rate is the average number of bits that one second of
audio data will consume. The measuring unit used is Kbps
(1000 bits per second).
To get a better audio quality, choose a higher bit rate. The
most popular bit rate for encoding (recording)is 128 Kbps.
Press the Stop ( ) button.

MP3 File Compatibility
This system can only read MP3 files that are recorded in
the format that is compliant with ISO 9660 Level 1 or
Level 2.
The system can read or play MP3 files only with the
extension code —“.mp3 ”.
ID3*tags cannot be shown on the display.
*An MP3 file can contain file information called “ID3 Tag ”
where its album name, performer, rack title, etc. are
recorded. There are two versions —ID3v1 (ID3 Tag ver-
sion 1)and ID3v2 (ID3 Tag version 2).
CD-R/RW playback compatibility
Your DVD player can also play CD-R and CD-RW discs
recorded in digital audio format. When recording your own
CD-R or CD-RW discs, make sure that the recording ses-
sion is properly terminated, or they will not be playable.
(Depending on disc properties and recording quality,
some CD-R/RW may not be playable.)
CD-RW has a lower reflection rate than CD-R media and
consequently it will take a longer to read CD-R discs.
CD-RW discs recorded at high speed tend to be difficult
for the DVD player to read. If the recording speed for the
CD-RW disc is not predetermined, write it at low speed.
